Moving Day: A Season of Letters by Ibby Greer

"Moving Days: A Season of Letters" is like reading a lovely Valentine card! In Ibby Greer's first novel, widow Ann Bow faces the challenges of being alone and elderly. We are drawn into Ann's rich life in Colorado through a series of letters.

As readers, we meet Ann's friends and family, taste her hot sweet tea and feel the chill of blustery Chinook winds. We experience love, hope and even death with Ann.

"Life is a series of details" my grandfather used to say. In Moving Day, the details are a sweet gift and those of us "of a certain age" will make Ann our new best friend.
